Holiday Snapshots Taken Using the Lomography x Zenit Petzval Lens

Previously we’ve showcased a couple of galleries featuring beautiful analogue and digital photographs taken using the revolutionary Lomography x Zenit Petzval Lens. With only a day left before Christmas, we’re giving you more; but this time around, we have this selection of lovely themed photographs taken in New York City!

If seeing all these snapshots, plus a few more samples in analogue and digital, makes you want to take some of your own, then you might be glad to know that the Lomography x Zenit Petzval Lens is currently available for pre-order on the Lomography Online Shop! Make sure to pre-order yours as soon as you can, because due to high demand and extremely limited production capabilities, we’re estimating that this batch of lenses will be delivered by May 2014.

Each of the Lomography x Zenit Petzval Lens is carefully crafted by optical technicians at the Zenit factory in Krasnogorsk, Russia. What’s more, you can choose from having your lens in either regular finish or special edition black finish, and get a few awesome freebies along with your lens!
